3. Notes the progress with finalising and approving Special Protection Plans for sectors of the Conjunto Histórico, due for completion in 2013;

4. Also notes that the buffer zone will be completely covered by these Plans which should provide it with adequate protection;

5. Further notes that for the wider setting, the local authorities will be tasked with establishing adequate control measures for new constructions;

6. Considers that impact assessments for new constructions which can potentially impact the Outstanding Universal Value should be carried out in line with the ICOMOS Guidance on Heritage Impact Assessments;

7. Takes note that no collaboration with ICOMOS has so far been undertaken on studies necessary to avoid further high-rise buildings that would impact adversely on the Outstanding Universal Value, but notes furthermore the request made by the State Party to ICOMOS to start this process;

8. Requests the State Party to submit to the World Heritage Centre, by 1 February 2015 , a progress report on the implementation of the above.
